Originating from the Bidjar provenance, this piece is an extraordinary exemplar of the Jajim style, celebrated for its striking vertical stripe pattern and commanding earth-toned palette, making it a serene and expansive addition to the Rug & Kilim collection.

On the Design:

This rug is a compelling study in architectural rhythm and monumental verticality, achieving a powerful, grounding presence through the dense repetition of line across its vast size.

Executed in the Jajim flatweave technique, the design creates an immediate and dramatic sense of structure.

The palette is a sophisticated composition of rich, organic neutrals, favoring a dynamic interplay of deep walnut, rich espresso brown, and various tones of soft taupe and light beige.

The density of the vertical stripes, with dark, pronounced lines serving as anchors between slightly wider bands of lighter, luminous tones, creates a mesmerizing optical effect and a strong sense of texture across the flat surface.

This bold yet elegant simplicity, rooted in the nomadic traditions of the Bidjar region, offers a striking, modern sensibility that feels both historically authentic and effortlessly minimal.

Condition:

This mid-century Persian Kilim further enjoys good condition for its age and origin, and is ready for the floor. See less
